Obama Clinches the Democratic Nomination

Barack Obama crossed the finish line yesterday evening and became the Democratic Party's de-facto nominee.  After a long, hard-fought battle with Senator Clinton, now all eyes can focus on McCain and his antics and we can start thinking about the general election, right?

Well, not quite.  You see, I'm betting that Clinton does not concede.  Though the contest is over, she's going to try to snatch the nomination away from its winner by trying to get the superdelegates to go against the vote, continuing to claim she won the popular vote though the only way that math works is, ironically, to not count the votes of caucus states (what happened to "we must count EVERY vote!"?  Oh yeah, it doesn't suit you).  Sometimes it's hard to understand senator Clinton over the sound of her flip-flops.

One thing I noticed about the Clintons is that they're both extremely conspiratorial.  Back during the opening salvo of the Monica Lewinsky investigation, Hillary blamed everything on a "vast, right-wing conspiracy."  Earlier this year, she blamed her failing campaign on "sexism" in the media.  Bill Clinton was heard earlier last week saying Barack Obama gets other people to "smear" his wife.  But I suppose those bat-shit insane Clinton supporters at the DNC rules committee threatening to vote for McCain if the committee didn't overturn the rules for their candidate shouldn't reflect on the Senator, huh?  This is a common, resurging trend: The Clintons do not take responsibility for their actions, and instead blame their shortcomings on others. 

I support Obama because he's an intelligent, eloquent leader.  I believe he will be able to not only balance the budget, but be able to give low-income families access to affordable health care.  I support Obama because he will put an end to government secrecy, making Washington D.C. much more transparent to the public.  But overall, I support Obama because he has the best chance of keeping John McCain out of the White House and ending the Iraq War.  I do not support Obama because I hate women, Senator Clinton.  Sorry to disappoint you.
